@SomeGuy But I asked you if you were black. Right? the way to the bottom of this, since I don't find "black" an insult like "nigger", but it can be meant however, is to ask you if it was racist... what do you mean by it. If that's too invasive or creepy to want to know, well, I guess you don't know REAL racists are a problem. They are. And I find it hard to believe you are black and don't know that, really?

However, I also believe, maybe you are black and you just don't get it, OR, you of course get it but were pissed your name of "blackguy" was ch anged when you just found that a good game handle.

Summary: just talk about if it was r acist, not on if you can be proved racist, or etc.

@SomeGuy Well, I was there and I explained the situation to you which was obvious: Tuta held that he is allowed (or she) to change your name if your name is racist. I do not say that it was racist, but obviously the situation was that Tuta thought it was intended racially. As an admin that's within the admin's discretion. So that is... I didn't find "blackguy" racist, so I didn't do anything, Tuta DID find it racist, and so did something.

Further tuta eventually stopped renaming you and let you be black guy.

I don't find "blackguy" racist automatically, but it also could be, I don't know what you said or Tuta's judgement on that and I don'tr really feel that's important to me. For one thing, explaining that "it's" not racist means nothing. Either YOU mean it that way or not, that would be the discussion, you avoided that.

For example... do you think that it is valid to be able to rename racist handles in the first place?
